About 1.4 million children have fled Ukraine since the start of the war with Russia on February 24. The Ukraine war has turned one child into a refugee every second, according to the United Nations.

“On average, every day for the last 20 days in Ukraine, more than 70,000 children became refugees,” UNICEF spokesman James Elder said in a press statement on Tuesday in Geneva.
